chiropractor
I looked up "chiropractor," and the first two answers given were "quiromante." So I used that word in a message to a Mexican friend, who in response told me that a quiromante is a magician who does black magic. I think I'll go back to my two dictionaries in the form of books, both of which gave me the correct answer ("quiropráctico").

Hehe. Dictionaries can be dangerous. Caveat lector!
Actually, a quiromante is a palmist or palm reader, not a magician. But my doctor friends don't have very high opinions of chiropractors, so maybe there is some relation...
